Oberammergau Food Guide: 10 Must-Eat Restaurants & Street Food Stalls in Oberammergau

October 11, 2017 Augustus Redeker

If you’re visiting Oberammergau in a year ending with zero, it’s all about the Passion Play. Villagers have performed it since the 17th century. It’s seven hours long (thankfully, with an intermission), and about half the townspeople participate in 100+ performances between May and October. And since hundreds of thousands are expected to attend over the course of those performances, if you’re in town, you’ll have company.

La Montanara

Reviewed By Dru49 - Stuttgart, Germany

The last time I dined at this restaurant was about six years ago and was very impressed with it, so my husband and I looked forward to going there again for some good Italian food. In the past it was always packed with people. This time, however, the place had only a few customers and we ended up being disappointed in the food. I'm not sure if they have changed owners, but the food was mediocre.
We had a small antipasto platter that tasted like it came from the grocery store. Just cold vegetables in oil. No meats or cheeses. The pasta was pretty salty and a little undercooked. I like al dente pasta, but this wasn't it. My husband's shrimp ended up being overcooked. The wine was very good, though. And you do get free limoncello at the end of the meal, which is nice.
I think the next time we visit Oberammergau and are in the mood for Italian, we'll try somewhere else.

My husband and I absolutely love this restaurant. The atmosphere is cozy and the food is spectacular. We have been coming to this restaurant for 13 years and we've only had great meals. Also, if you like game, deer and wild boar, this is certainly the place for you.

You can sit outside in the Sunshine, but inside is a very atmospheric small restaurant or a place just to go for a drink. I particularly liked their goulash. Generous portions

El Puente

Reviewed By RATMANDUDE - The Hague, The Netherlands

Okay I think it is the only Mexican food in Oberammergau but even so it is really good. The staff is super friendly and the food and service is of a high quality. It is made to order. Prices are reasonable. I would recommend a reservation as the restaurant is packed even on a Monday or Tuesday. They also had a drink happy hour from 1800-1900. It is worth a look.

Reviewed By Paola G

I would like to recommend a place you can not miss! Vladimir Zerebni, the owner speaks discreetly many languages and he is very well known as "Vlado, the Magician".
On one hand this is a typical Bavarian restaurant, you will eat very good food home made, good beer, and the prices are very competitives. On the other hand is a magic place, because of Vlado. I've known this place since many years, and I always come back with satisfaction, several times. Everyone visit the Zauberstubn in Oberammergau will have the occasion to meet the fantastic owner and be entertained by his various magic numbers, making each meal something special. You will be surprised. Do not forget to book in advance.

Ammergauer Maxbrau

Reviewed By Tuhughes - Washington, DC

Good choice for upscale Bavarian fare in Oberammergau, and great house-brewed beer (the kellerbier in particular). This is upscale food, but in a fairly casual environment. The stroganoff was delicious, but less creamy than I am used to, and a slightly smaller portion than I would have preferred. The duck breast was a great choice, nicely cooked so that it was still moist and not too chewy, and with a touch of citrus to offset the richness. We didn't try it, but the table behind us tried the Kaiserschmarrn soufflé and it looked amazing.

s'Wirtshaus Restaurant

Reviewed By PDMM_Gourmands - Ottawa, Canada

Originally stopped in for a 1/2L of wine, but...more colleagues joined us and we stayed for supper. We ordered the pork schnitzel stuffed mustard and horseradish - simply excellent/exquisite!!! Our colleagues had beer and other variations of schnitzel. They have other things on their menu that also looked very appetizing. It’s a family run business and the owner came out and asked us if we enjoyed our meal and if we wanted anything else. He also thanked us very much for the trade. I highly recommend this place for couples, business meetings and families. I hope to return.

We visited on Monday afternoon and had coffees. We were glad to be inside out of the rain. The service was efficient and the coffee was strong but hot. The restaurant is accessible but the toilets were downstairs. We did not explore the rooms but the hotel looked to be very pleasant.

Gasthof Zum Stern

Reviewed By Red_Tel_1963 - Blyth, United Kingdom

We really like this little restaurant. It is friendly with an excellent menu offering very good value. We found the Star during our first trip to Oberammergau some 4 years ago and have found it a great place to eat. The locals are friendly, but do not sit at the Stammtisch (it is for locals only). On our first night here it was really busy, every table occupied with only one waitress working. This did not slow service down or affect the quality of the meals. Nice outdoor area for the summer.
